If anyone tried that with my daughter, I have no doubt she'd inflict severe physical pain before quitting the job on the spot. I don't need to feign any tough guy dad attitudes to strangers on the internet, because any potential perp has a hell of a lot more to fear from her than he would from me. She's got a helpful, friendly temperament that serves her well in the crappy service jobs that young people usually get, but when she needs to she can instantly turn on a toughness that signals that she's not going to be anyone's victim.

Anyway, her workplace is fine. All she's had to put up with so far is that one car theft.

Heh, when I was working an entry level printing job back in '95 I had to fend off the overt sexual advances of a fugly older broad that was desperate to get young dick.

Her way of introducing herself the first day I worked there was "You, me, a bottle of wine and a hottub". My dick shriveled up, hid up behind my sternum and didn't come back out for 3 weeks. I tell you, that broad was fugly. The patron saint of fugly you might say.

In my office, there's a young woman who is about 15 years younger than I am and she sits at her desk directly in front of me, facing me, about 20 feet away.

Almost every time I have looked up from my computer, I accidentally made eye contact with her.

It got to the point that I consciously avoid looking at her because I figure she thinks I am creepy and staring at her.

Eventually, she put up a decorative thing on top of her cubicle wall so now we can't accidentally make eye contact. It made me feel even creepier, and yet it was also a relief.

And, oh crap, now I noticed that the decorative thing is gone.

Back to being creepy...

How can you 'look 'up' from your computer? Trying to understand the physics of it. I assume your monitor is straight ahead and covers a relatively large area in your frontal field of vision. If you look up would't you be.... looking well ...up? Unless you're saying her desk is higher than yours or your monitor sits so low that you actually look 'down' on the screen.. Still doesn't make geometrical sense.

Look at her boobs instead.

They are real and they are spectacular.

Actually, I can only verify the second half of that.

Hey, I guess I am creepy.

Nah you're only creepy if someone finds the camera you have pointing at her desk.

either way bad ergonomics man!!

He's probably not short and is looking over a laptop screen. Either way I can see over the top of my monitor even if I'm not using a laptop. This is a pretty easy scenario to envision.

Actually, personal advocacy is an amazingly useful skill that many people never seem to learn regardless of position. Being able to say "no" and not feeling bad about it is a hallmark of good health and boundaries...not to mention greatly reduces the likelihood of the horny old guy int he office assaulting you.

Maybe she's really tall, or he's on a laptop?

maybe its a laptop or his screen is small. Also could be one of those cubicles with the excessively low panels.

IN my late 50's I'm probably creepy enough to young girls.Fortunate for me, I''m not bugging my doctor for testosterone pills.Why do I need to feel like taking risks, spending money I can't afford, and acting like an asshole?Sure, they might be eyecandy for a moment, but let me tell you, I can to the calculus in my head.She's under 30, so you know she's still got all kinds of adolescent nuts in her head.She's probably chock full of STDs.She is 89% for sure going to bat her eyes at you and try to get you to switch shifts to please her lifestyle.She is 40% assuredly going to quit, get knocked up, or leave, but you know when she gets married, she's going to hit everyone up with a hat pass, then quit, or stick around if the haul was good, and pass the hat for the pending kid, take a maternity leave, come back for a week, and quit.She is a time bomb waiting for a HR trainwreck. . 10% chance.So I give a wide berth, treat like my sister. And mentor a lot.Also, if they show up on my doorstep after they quit, That's my business.

ongbok:And you don't think that young men, or men in general, have to deal with the same crap from horny women in the office.

CSB:

When I was twenty, my first boss was a thirty ish, baby crazy and single woman. She kept trying to get me to hang out with her. Unluckily for her, I was dating a 25 year old philipino gal I had met in class earlier that year.

/ don't date philipino women; if they think that you're cheating on them; they may try to cut your wiener off; would not recommend

Sounds like she's just teasing you and is actually interested.

/ Am I right guys??

Yeah she's totally interested. She's actually testing to see if you'll be a real man and do something about it. What wimmens like is when you pass them in a hall and suddenly pin them to the wall, drool on their neck and talk about babbies & such. She'll complain, but that's an act. What she really wants is for you to cover her mouth with your hand and push her head against the wall.

The point is, she shouldn't have to quit. Somebody shouldn't have to leave a job just so they won't have to tolerate behavior from coworkers or customers who don't even have the impulse control of a toddler.
